<p>Alright guys, so I'm a junior at a boarding school that specializes in math and science. I'm thinking about going into business but I my extracurricular is actually so bad. I guess it's too early to ask for my chances, but this is still pretty related. I'm really uninformed and terrible at prioritizing--I don't know what looks good college and what's unimportant. So can you help me decide which activities I should continue and which I should drop? I don't have time for all of them, obviously.
So here it goes, I'm only going to list the major ones:
math team (highest accomplishment is AIME, which I got a six on. not good, not bad)
facilitator of a leadership education program at my school. It's really time-consuming and completely student run. We write our own curriculum and host leadership training programs for students across the state. This is also a mandatory course for our sophomores.
Mu Alpha Theta. I'm the secretary and started MAO competitions at my school this year (I know it's stupid that our chapter didn't even have competitions before, but bear with me)
tennis (I'm pretty bad. so far only on JV)
speech team. really time consuming and I don't think it's worth my time, because my highest accomplishment is getting 4th at a small invite. heck, I didn't even go the regionals last year.
Art: I have a lot of paintings I've done in the past, and so far one of them has been accepted for publication by Celebrate Art. I might take some lessons to make more quality drawings though.
I'm also trying to start a chapter for relay for life at my school, but I don't know how that'll go.
Oh and I'm doing research on breast cancer at a nearby university's medical center and looking to enter some competitions like intel.
So here's the question:
Should I quit speech team? I'm also thinking about doing FBLA, TEAMS (an engineering competition), and Science Bowl, but I don't know if I have the time. Even if I do, these are team competitions so I don't know if it'll be significant. I don't know if I should do tennis next year either because it's really time-consuming and I'm only on JV. Finally, what do you think about that leadership program our school has? It's really time-consuming and I love it but I don't know about college </p>
<p>Enlighten me with your wisdom!</p>
